Abstract
The poster must have an abstract that stating briefly the
purpose of the research, the principal results and major
conclusions. An abstract is often presented separate from
the article, so it must be able to stand alone. References
should therefore be avoided, but if essential, they must be
cited in full, without reference to the reference list. The
abstract should be one paragraph, indented 0.3 cm on both
sides, in Times New Roman 9 point font, justified, with
single spacing. It should contain about 120-200 words.
The heading “Abstract” should be 10 point, bold, centred,
with one line space below it.
Keywords: provide a maximum of 5 keywords,
avoiding general and plural terms and multiple
concepts. Use Times New Roman, 10 points,
justified, and single spacing.
